Ok, now I got this script acting wierd:

#TR {You receive (%d) experience points.} {#IF (%1>0) {%case( %random( 6), skin boots, skin leggings, skin sleeves, skin cloak, skin gloves, skin helm)}}

Every now an again(like 30-40 percent of the time) it wont actually send the command to the mud. It puts a carraige return where the command should go, but no command. I know because the output looks like this:

An orc screams as the flames engulf her!!
You receive 99 experience points.
You hear An orc's death cry.
You get An Orkish Scimitar from the charred corpse of An orc.
You get 1917 gold coins from the charred corpse of An orc.

Thats without the script running, but when it runs properly it looks like this:

An orc screams as the flames engulf her!!
You receive 99 experience points.
skin helm
You hear An orc's death cry.
You get An Orkish Scimitar from the charred corpse of An orc.
You get 1917 gold coins from the charred corpse of An orc.

But when it goofs, it looks like:
An orc screams as the flames engulf her!!
You receive 99 experience points.

You hear An orc's death cry.
You get An Orkish Scimitar from the charred corpse of An orc.
You get 1917 gold coins from the charred corpse of An orc.

Any idea where I went wrong?

....(%1>0) {%case( %random( 6), skin ....

%random(6) can return 0, and when that happens, I think %case just returns nothing. To prevent it from returning 0, do %random(1,6)
